Simple Sticky Footer

Description

Instructions: First of all activate the plugin.

Step1: Create a new page. I suggest to add as title “Sticky Footer”

Step2: Go to the configuration page APPEARANCE -> SIMPLE STICKY FOOTER.

Step3: Select the page which will be shown on your website.

Step4(optional): Define a width, in most cases the width of your page.

Step5(optional): Define an animation effect.

Step6(optional): Define a delay. Sometimes you want to show the sticky footer after 10-15 seconds. Now you can do this.

Step7(optional): Define additional CSS rules like: rounded borders, gradient background, shadows, etc … Do not use { }, just enter the css properties ex: background:gray;border-top:1px;

Have fun!

FAQ

How can I add custom sticky footer wherever I want?

Shortcode feature was added since v1.2.0.

Examples:

  1. Insert shortcode into a page/post – : [simple_sf pid=900], where pid is the id of your (sticky footer) page.
  2. Insert shortcode into a template file: <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[simple_sf pid=900]’); ?>

You might create as many sticky footers you want, and easily can integrate in any template file.

Why I can’t see the bottom part of the page ?

Sticky footer has a fixed position. It’s recommended to define padding bottom for your body with the height of the sticky div.
Eg: Sticky footer height is 160px. You might define in your themes style.css : body {padding-bottom: 160px;}

How can I customize 100% ?

If it is not enough the customizaton options from the administration panel, you should add extra CSS properties in your style.css from the active theme directory.
Of course you can add interactions in your theme’s javascript file.
Sticky footer has 2 divs:

  • container: #simple-sticky-footer-container

  • content: #simple-sticky-footer

Very nice Plugin works also perfect with Page Designer and Gravity Forms. One tiny wish would be to close the sticky footer But anyway thank you for the updates and good work

I tested this with Avada and had no problems out of the box. This is definitely a good solution for any website that needs a sticky footer and needs to make it easily. Because this plugin pull from a page’s content, then creating the content for your Sticky footer is simple as creating a page, then selecting that page to be your stick footer content. And that’t it. Done, unless you want to add some fancy effects 🙂 5 Stars.
